You asked for it

This is the beam that helps keep the rafter from flexing under load while resisting spreading. I made it with a half-lap dovetail joint pegged with an oak trenail (peg).

This is the corner above the "cure couch" the knee brace keeps the weight of the roof from flexing the post above the joint for the first bent.

This is the south post on the 2nd bent. You can see the joists going into the main beam as well as the brace which protects the shouldered tongue which goes into the post.

I'm not visually artistic, I'm aurally artistic, but I've posted a couple of links to some of the work I've done and didn't get any response. Either I suck, or the file size is intimidating...
